Lately, I’ve been taking pictures of some of our favorite mugs for a series I’m calling “Mug Shots.”
Last Sunday night, our daughter and I both seemed to have “mugs” on the mind!
I started this post, but never finished it.
Today, I picked up a favorite magazine and saw an article called by the same name: “Mug Shots” –
so I decided it was time to get this ready to publish!
I’ll be sharing more mugs later.
While sitting at the supper table (as we Southerners call it) last Sunday evening,
I snapped an iPhone picture of the back of a favorite mug.
The picture wasn’t very clear in the low light, so I started playing around with “Filter Mania,”
one of the apps on my phone.
I tweaked the picture a little and then applied the “Brick Wall” filter.
For some reason, I really liked the way it turned out –
nothing spectacular — just pleasing to the eye –
like a friendly mural spray-painted on the side of an old building!
While I prefer to spend time editing photos on the computer,
I still think it’s fun every once in a while to play with these apps.
I’ve even noticed that some of the professional photographers I follow online
are also applying these little apps to their photos, just for fun!
To see another “Mug Shot,” I invite you to click over to my daughter’s blog
and check out something fun she discovered last Sunday night in her kitchen sink!

Now — I’m wondering if y’all have favorite mugs you’d like to show us on your blogs!
I’d really enjoy seeing them, and I’m sure other readers would, too.

Meanwhile, thanks for stopping by Little Things.
I hope you take time in your everyday life to notice happy little things…
like hearts on coffee mugs…and smiley faces in unexpected places!

Cold weather is settling into the Southland tonight;
won’t you join me in a mug of somethin’ warm to drink?!
